TOP COLLEGE PICKS
Georgia Institute of Technology
Georgia Tech is my first choice as of now because of its benefits and its tuition.
University of Georgia
If I fail to be accepted into Georgia Tech, I'll go to the University of Georgia and try to transfer to Georgia Tech.
Emory University
Emory would have been a top pick if the tuition hadn't been so high.
Georgia Institute of Technology
First Look
- The school is located in Atlanta, Georgia.
- It has about 14,527 undergraduate students and 5,386 graduate students.

Georgia Tech is a huge school with many buildings for different purposes. Many academic events ranging from elementary to high school are held within specific buildings. Although there are many academic buildings, there are also some recreational buildings like the swim center, gym, and the undergraduate study building.
